Basic, NTLM, or HTTP forms authentication

Updated: February 1, 2010

Applies To: Unified Access Gateway

Forefront Unified Access Gateway (UAG) allows you to authenticate users to published Web servers using Basic, NTLM, or HTTP forms-based authentication.

In order to use these authentication methods, Forefront UAG requires a username and password that is normally collected during the frontend authentication process. The username and password is sent to the backend server when a user tries to access a resource on that server.
